Remarks |
The donor is a probable escapee from Alzheimer's disease. The culture was initiated on 10/21/86 by transformation of lymphocytes with Epstein Barr virus. The cells grow in suspension and their morphology is spherical. The karyotype is 46,XY with 4% of the cells examined showing random chromosome loss and 2% showing random chromosomal aberrations. A skin fibroblast culture from same donor is AG09179. The legacy karyotype description shown in this Remark may not be representative of the current available product. |
